We verify that the optimal probability of successful teleportation is determined by the smallest superposition coefficient of these partially entangled particles. However, the two-qubit entangled state to be teleported will be destroyed if teleportation fails. To solve this problem, we show a more sophisticated probabilistic resumable quantum teleportation scheme of a two-qubit entangled state, where the state to be teleported can be recovered by the sender when teleportation fails. Thus the information of the unknown state is retained during the process. Accordingly, we can repeat the teleportion process as many times as one has available quantum channels. Therefore, the quantum channels with weak entanglement can also be used to teleport unknown two-qubit entangled states successfully with a high number of repetitions, and for channels with strong entanglement only a small number of repetitions are required to guarantee successful teleportation. Keywords: quantum teleportation; two-qubit entangled state; partially entangled state; local unitary operation; controlled-U gate 1. Introduction Quantum teleportation (QT) is one of the most astonishing applications of quantum mechanics. This operable concept was originally presented by Bennett et al. in 1993 [1]. In this protocol, the sender (Alice) and the receiver (Bob) prearrange the sharing of an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) [2] correlated pair of particles. Alice makes a joint measurement on her EPR particle and the unknown quantum system; she then sends Bob the classical result of her measurement. Finally, Bob can convert the state of his EPR particle into an exact replica of the unknown state belonging to Alice by means of local operations and classical communication (LOCC). QT has been realized experimentally [3–5] and due to its fresh notion and latent applied prospects in the realm of quantum communication, various kinds of QT have been widely studied both theoretically [6–9] and experimentally [10–12]. From above researches, we can learn that a maximally entangled state as the quantum channel and two classical bits are the key ingredients for the deterministic teleportation with fidelity 1 [13,14]. However, in realistic situation, instead of the pure maximally entangled states, Alice and Bob usually share a mixed entangled state or a partially entangled state due to the decoherence. Teleportation using a mixed state as an entangled resource is, in general, equivalent to having a noisy quantum channel. As a mixed state can’t be purified to a Bell state [15–17], a quantum channel of mixed states Entropy 2019, 21, 352; doi:10.3390/e21040352 www.mdpi.com/journal/entropy Entropy 2019, 21, 352 2 of 11 could never provide a teleportation with fidelity 1 [18,19]. Therefore, only pure entangled pairs should be considered if we prefer an exact teleportation, even if it is probabilistic. Li et al. [20] put forward a partially entangled quantum channel to probabilistically teleport the quantum state of a single particle and extended this scheme to a multi-particle system. Much attention has been paid to this direction [21–26]. Recently, the field of entanglement has become an intense research area due to its key role in many applications of quantum information processing, such as precise measurement, quantum communication, quantum network and quantum repeater, etc. It is therefore an interesting question how we can teleport a pair of entangled particles. In 1999, Gorbachev et al. [27] proposed their protocol, teleportation of a two-qubit entangled state (TTES), by using a three-particle maximally entangled state of the type Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ). Two schemes for generalized TTES (GTTES) have been reported soon. In one of them, the protocol is assisted with a generalized three-particle entangled state as quantum channel, which is based on GHZ [28]. In the other probabilistic scheme, teleportation is completed with an entanglement swapping process [29], which is carried out via two pairs of partially entangled channels (TPEC). In their schemes, since the fidelity cannot reach 1, the maximal probabilities of exact teleportation was provided. According to the no-cloning theorem [30,31] and the irreversibility of quantum measurements [32,33], the information of the states to be teleported will be lost if the processes fail. Obviously, their destructive protocols do not offer the chance to repeat the process if TTES fails. Roa et al. [34] presented a scheme for teleporting probabilistically an unknown pure state with optimal probability and without losing the information of the state to be teleported, and its advantage is that the unknown state is recovered by the sender when teleportation fails. This property offers the chance to repeat the teleportation process as many times as one has available quantum channels. This paper is organized as follow. In Section2, we present the probabilistic quantum teleportation of a two-qubit entangled state protocol, which uses two pairs of partially entangled particles as quantum channel. We verify that the optimal probability of successful teleportation is determined by the smallest superposition coefficient of these partially entangled particles. We introduce an optimal scheme, probabilistic resumable quantum teleportation of a two-qubit entangled state (RTTES) in Section3, which is assisted with TPEC and has the advantage that the unknown entangled state can be recovered by the sender when the process fails. That is to say, if the sender and receiver have more than one partially entangled quantum channel, then the sender is able to teleport many times until RTTES is successful because the sender still have the unknown state undisturbed. In Section4, we discuss the success probability of probabilistic TTES process. Finally, the conclusions are summarized in Section5. 2. Probabilistic Teleportation of a Two-Qubit Entangled State Suppose Alice has an arbitrary partially entangled pair, consisting of particles (1,2), which can be described as jfi12 = (xj00i + yj11i)12, (1) 2 2 with jxj + jyj = 1, where fj0i, j1ig are the eigenstates of the Pauli operator sz = j0ih0j − j1ih1j. Now Alice would like to teleport the unknown state jfi12 to Bob. She sets up two distant entangled pure states as quantum channel between herself (particles 3 and 5) and Bob (particles 4 and 6), which located in the following states, respectively: ( jyi34 = (aj00i + bj11i)34, (2) jyi56 = (cj00i + dj11i)56, with jaj > jbj, jaj2 + jbj2 = 1, jcj > jdj, jcj2 + jdj2 = 1. Note that when jaj = jbj and jcj = jdj, the quantum channel is composed of two EPR pairs, and the deterministic teleportation can be achieved. This is the special case of our scheme. We demonstrate that, by using entanglement swapping [29], Alice can successfully transmit state jfi12 to Bob with certain probability. Entropy 2019, 21, 352 3 of 11 The state of the whole system is given by jYi123456 = jfi12 ⊗ jyi34 ⊗ jyi56 = [x(acj000000i + adj000011i + bcj001100i + bdj001111i) (3) +y(acj110000i + adj110011i + bcj111100i + bdj111111i)]123456. Now Alice firstly performs local Bell-state measurements [35] on particles (1, 3) and particles (2, 5), respectively. The particles (4, 6) belong to Bob will be projected to the corresponding quantum state, i.e., the above strategy is provided for the receiver to extract the quantum information by ± adoptingp a proper evolution.p There are four outcomes in each Bell-state measurement, (jF i = 1/ 2(j00i ± j11i), jY±i = 1/ 2(j01i ± j10i)), so there are sixteen specific results in total. + − For example, here we analyse the case that the results of measurement are jF i13 and jY i25, respectively. The particles (4, 6) are collapsed into the following state + − jFi46 = hF13jhY25jYi123456 = p1 (h00j + h11j) p1 (h01j − h10j) jYi 2 13 2 25 123456 (4) 1 = 2 (xadj01i − ybcj10i)46. Next, Alice informs Bob of the results by the classical communication and Bob performs a unitary operation (j0ih0j + j1ih1j)4 ⊗ (j0ih1j − j1ih0j)6 on Equation (4). Then its state changes to 1 2 (xadj00i + ybcj11i)46. (5) Without loss of generality, if the superposition coefficients satisfy jaj > jcj > jdj > jbj, we have jacj > jbdj, jadj > jbcj. In order to carry out the proper evolution, we need to introduce an auxiliary particle to Bob which initial state is j0iaux, and operate the following controlled unitary transformation under the basis fj0i4j0iaux, j1i4j0iaux, j0i4j1iaux, j1i4j1iauxg. The unitary transformation is described as the following controlled-U gate U1 = j0ih0j ⊗ Uˆ 1 + j1ih1j ⊗ I, (6) with Uˆ 1 being a rotation in a p/2 angle around the nˆ 1 direction, specifically, r ! p p 2 ˆ −i 2 i 2 nˆ1·s bc bc U1 = e e , nˆ 1 = 1 − ad , 0, ad , (7) and s = (sx, sy, sz). Note that the amplitudes a, b, c and d of the quantum channel have to be known in order to apply the above unitary transformation. The collective unitary transformation U1 transforms the un-normalized state Equation (5) to the result r 2 1 1 bc (8) jFi46aux = 2 bc(xj00i + yj11i)46j0iaux + 2 ad 1 − ad xj00i46j1iaux, which is also un-normalized.

  • Pilot Quantum Error Correction for Global
    Pilot Quantum Error Correction for Global- Scale Quantum Communications Laszlo Gyongyosi*1,2, Member, IEEE, Sandor Imre1, Member, IEEE 1Quantum Technologies Laboratory, Department of Telecommunications Budapest University of Technology and Economics 2 Magyar tudosok krt, H-1111, Budapest, Hungary 2Information Systems Research Group, Mathematics and Natural Sciences Hungarian Academy of Sciences H-1518, Budapest, Hungary *[email protected] Real global-scale quantum communications and quantum key distribution systems cannot be implemented by the current fiber and free-space links. These links have high attenuation, low polarization-preserving capability or extreme sensitivity to the environment. A potential solution to the problem is the space-earth quantum channels. These channels have no absorption since the signal states are propagated in empty space, however a small fraction of these channels is in the atmosphere, which causes slight depolarizing effect. Furthermore, the relative motion of the ground station and the satellite causes a rotation in the polarization of the quantum states. In the current approaches to compensate for these types of polarization errors, high computational costs and extra physical apparatuses are required. Here we introduce a novel approach which breaks with the traditional views of currently developed quantum-error correction schemes. The proposed solution can be applied to fix the polarization errors which are critical in space-earth quantum communication systems. The channel coding scheme provides capacity-achieving communication over slightly depolarizing space-earth channels. I. Introduction Quantum error-correction schemes use different techniques to correct the various possible errors which occur in a quantum channel. In the first decade of the 21st century, many revolutionary properties of quantum channels were discovered [12-16], [19-22] however the efficient error- correction in quantum systems is still a challenge.

  • Free-Electron Qubits
    Free-Electron Qubits Ori Reinhardt†, Chen Mechel†, Morgan Lynch, and Ido Kaminer Department of Electrical Engineering and Solid State Institute, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, 32000 Haifa, Israel † equal contributors Free-electron interactions with laser-driven nanophotonic nearfields can quantize the electrons’ energy spectrum and provide control over this quantized degree of freedom. We propose to use such interactions to promote free electrons as carriers of quantum information and find how to create a qubit on a free electron. We find how to implement the qubit’s non-commutative spin-algebra, then control and measure the qubit state with a universal set of 1-qubit gates. These gates are within the current capabilities of femtosecond-pulsed laser-driven transmission electron microscopy. Pulsed laser driving promise configurability by the laser intensity, polarizability, pulse duration, and arrival times. Most platforms for quantum computation today rely on light-matter interactions of bound electrons such as in ion traps [1], superconducting circuits [2], and electron spin systems [3,4]. These form a natural choice for implementing 2-level systems with spin algebra. Instead of using bound electrons for quantum information processing, in this letter we propose using free electrons and manipulating them with femtosecond laser pulses in optical frequencies. Compared to bound electrons, free electron systems enable accessing high energy scales and short time scales. Moreover, they possess quantized degrees of freedom that can take unbounded values, such as orbital angular momentum (OAM), which has also been proposed for information encoding [5-10]. Analogously, photons also have the capability to encode information in their OAM [11,12].

In this method, the position of hydrogen has been studied in different external fields. The more we have different external field effects and electromagnetic radiation, the more we have different distribution ratios. Consequently, the quality of different distribution ratios has been applied to the suggested qubit and decoder model. We use the nuclear property of hydrogen in order to find a logical truth value. Computational results demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency that can be obtained with the use of these models. Keywords: quantum computing, qubit, decoder, gyromagnetic ratio, spin. 1.

The use of photons, which provide a fast and robust platform for encoding qubits, in such schemes relies on a quantum memory in which to store the photons, and retrieve them on-demand. Such a memory can consist of either a single absorber, or an ensemble of absorbers, with a ¤-type level structure, as well as other control ¯elds that a®ect the transfer of the quantum signal ¯eld to a material storage state. Ensembles have the advantage that the coupling of the signal ¯eld to the medium scales with the square root of the number of absorbers. In this thesis we theoretically study the use of ensembles of absorbers for a quantum memory. We characterize a general quantum memory in terms of its interaction with the signal and control ¯elds, and propose a ¯gure of merit that measures how well such a memory preserves entanglement. We derive an analytical expression for the entanglement ¯delity in terms of fluctuations in the stochastic Hamiltonian parameters, and show how this ¯gure could be measured experimentally.

The quantum complexity of a unitary transformation or quantum state is defined as the size of the shortest quantum computation that executes the unitary or prepares the state. It is reasonable to expect that the complexity of a quantum state governed by a chaotic many- body Hamiltonian grows linearly with time for a time that is exponential in the system size; however, because it is hard to rule out a short-cut that improves the efficiency of a computation, it is notoriously difficult to derive lower bounds on quantum complexity for particular unitaries or states without making additional assumptions. To go further, one may study more generic models of complexity growth. We provide a rigorous connection between complexity growth and unitary k-designs, ensembles which capture the randomness of the unitary group. This connection allows us to leverage existing results about design growth to draw conclusions about the growth of complexity.

  • Teleportation
    TELEPORTATION ESSAY FOR THE COURSE QUANTUM MECHANICS FOR MATHEMATICIANS ANNE VAN WEERDEN SUPERVISOR DR B.R.U. DHERIN UTRECHT UNIVERSITY JUNE 2010 PREFACE The aim of this essay is to describe the teleportation process in such a way that it will be clear what is done so far, and what is still needed, to develop a teleportation device for humans, which would be my ultimate goal. However much is done already, there are thresholds that still have to be overcome, some of which will need real ingenuity, and others brute computing power, far more than we are now capable of. But I will show why I have confidence that we will reach this goal by describing the astonishing developments in the field of teleportation and the speed with which computing, or technology, evolves. The discovery that teleportation really is possible came about while I was in my thirties, but I was largely unaware of its further developments until I started the research for this essay. Assuming that I am not the only one who did not know, I wrote this essay aimed at people from my age, in their fifties, who, like me, started out without television and computer, I even remember my Mother telling me how she bought a transistor radio for the first time, placed it in a closet and closed the door, just to be amazed that it could still receive signals and play. We saw it all come by, from the first steps on the Moon watched on the television my parents had only bought a few years earlier, I clearly remember asking my Father who, with much foresight, got us out of our beds despite my

  • Booklet of Abstracts
    Booklet of abstracts Thomas Vidick California Institute of Technology Tsirelson's problem and MIP*=RE Boris Tsirelson in 1993 implicitly posed "Tsirelson's Problem", a question about the possible equivalence between two different ways of modeling locality, and hence entanglement, in quantum mechanics. Tsirelson's Problem gained prominence through work of Fritz, Navascues et al., and Ozawa a decade ago that establishes its equivalence to the famous "Connes' Embedding Problem" in the theory of von Neumann algebras. Recently we gave a negative answer to Tsirelson's Problem and Connes' Embedding Problem by proving a seemingly stronger result in quantum complexity theory. This result is summarized in the equation MIP* = RE between two complexity classes. In the talk I will present and motivate Tsirelson's problem, and outline its connection to Connes' Embedding Problem. I will then explain the connection to quantum complexity theory and show how ideas developed in the past two decades in the study of classical and quantum interactive proof systems led to the characterization (which I will explain) MIP* = RE and the negative resolution of Tsirelson's Problem.

  • Lecture 6: Quantum Error Correction and Quantum Capacity
    Lecture 6: Quantum error correction and quantum capacity Mark M. Wilde∗ The quantum capacity theorem is one of the most important theorems in quantum Shannon theory. It is a fundamentally \quantum" theorem in that it demonstrates that a fundamentally quantum information quantity, the coherent information, is an achievable rate for quantum com- munication over a quantum channel. The fact that the coherent information does not have a strong analog in classical Shannon theory truly separates the quantum and classical theories of information. The no-cloning theorem provides the intuition behind quantum error correction. The goal of any quantum communication protocol is for Alice to establish quantum correlations with the receiver Bob. We know well now that every quantum channel has an isometric extension, so that we can think of another receiver, the environment Eve, who is at a second output port of a larger unitary evolution. Were Eve able to learn anything about the quantum information that Alice is attempting to transmit to Bob, then Bob could not be retrieving this information|otherwise, they would violate the no-cloning theorem. Thus, Alice should figure out some subspace of the channel input where she can place her quantum information such that only Bob has access to it, while Eve does not. That the dimensionality of this subspace is exponential in the coherent information is perhaps then unsurprising in light of the above no-cloning reasoning. The coherent information is an entropy difference H(B) − H(E)|a measure of the amount of quantum correlations that Alice can establish with Bob less the amount that Eve can gain.
